[quote=Anonymous]Definitely #2. The quality of life issue raised here is obvious on the face of it, but there is an interesting aspect that goes a bit deeper. It sounds like you might miss the great co-workers at job #1. Perhaps you feel a bit guilty leaving them in their misery. Great coworkers can make up for a lot, but not for the soul drain of a dead end boring job. Its = better to have a job that builds esteem in you than to have coworker relationships that prop it up through a dull day. Coworker relationships can shift and change. People can leave. But if you are building up a career with greater promise you will feel better about yourself and all your relationships will feel better. My sense was the commute was not the real issue in this case, but it is an obvious factor. I would say if you are happier, you can easily use that extra 15 minutes to catch up on reading or some form of meditation. Then its time well spent. Good luck at the new job! [/quote]
